“When looking for a therapist I know I needed someone I could connect with. I’ve had my share of bad experiences with therapist, and also the most amazing. I just need to learn to enjoy life again and be able to control the anxiety and depression from recent trauma. I feel that Linda’s approach is exactly what a person dealing with trauma and loss needs. She has given me resources and guidance and confidence”

Getting to know Linda Karpel
I am a Licensed Clinical Social Worker in California with a Master's in Social Work from California State University, Long Beach. I bring 5 years of experience in private practice and 25 years in mental health settings, focusing on individuals, young adults, and other specialties. I have worked with clients facing issues such as depression, anxiety, anger management, relationship challenges, parenting, and couples' concerns. Additionally, I have supported people dealing with domestic violence and trauma.
My approach is to work with you in a warm, supportive environment. I believe it is important to build a trusting relationship where you feel respected and heard, and where we collaborate on your concerns. I use multiple clinical approaches, including Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Narrative Therapy, Brief Therapy, Grief Therapy, Solution-Based Therapy, and Client-Centered Therapy. These therapies are tailored to best fit your unique situation.
You are a strong, courageous person for taking this first step toward improving your life. I respect the effort it takes to begin this journey. Your path will be unique and empowering.
I look forward to working with you!
